Notes: "I have not only translated and edited pertinent letters but also arranged them chronologically and, within this general framework, thematically, briefly introduced each document, and writtern contextual introduction to each chapter of documents. The annotations explain theological jargon and identify, wherever possible, the people, places and events which are mentioned or alluded to in the letters. Ideally, an edited compilation of this sort should be read in conjunction with a detailed general history of Norwegian missions in Southern Africa."--Preface.

Includes bibliographical references (pages 203-208) and index.
